Transgender hate on mum's net

I'm just wondering, I see so much hate on here about transgender woman and not a lot about transgender men. Does everyone on mum's net hate Transgender women and if so why? I don't mind sharing a toilet space with a transgender woman in fact my best friend is a transgender woman and she is the nicest person you could ever wish to meet and will protect any woman no matter where they are. I would hate to be sharing a toilet with a hairy masculine transgender man, which seems the way people want to go why? Am I the only person on here that supports trans gender women, if so I need to leave. How many people that hate Transgender women have actually met one and had issues with one I'd love to know.

Ithink it’s less about trans hate and more sbout being pro women’s rights to single sex spaces. It’s really unfair to ask women to allow men access for whatever reason, just because you wouldn’t have an issue with it OP doesnt mean you get to make decision on behalf of all women.

"...raped in seconds..."

Stupid, hyperbolic, childish crap.

I’m not stunning. I was raped in seconds by someone who came through my own front door.

funny that. Not.

A true Transgender women won't be hairy or masculine. I totally agree that men in dresses should be banned but they aren't transgender.

As you've popped over from Reddit, I thought I'd return the favour and make the journey over to the other place for a look around. Marvellously sane place the MtF subreddit, always an interesting read.

But back to your quote above about true transgender women not being masculine, what about those poor souls who are trying their best but they just still look like a bloke? This guy admits he looks like:

"Buzz Light-year in a women's polo / shirt with a somewhat feminine face / boobs...Obviously trans...I look like having a fem face with insanely manly body / hands / male baldness pattern..."

Can he not live his authentic self just because he can't pass as a woman? How cruelly transphobic of you.

I couldn't remember the term for DSD as I was typing to be honest. But where are your sources for the DSD thing? I'm yet to see any objective evidence that Khelif is anything other than a not very feminine looking woman.

Why do you think he didn’t take part in the 2025 Eindhoven World Cup? Why hasn’t he followed through with his threats to sue various people including JKR?

He has admitted to having the SRY gene. Even the captured Guardian has listed him as having a DSD.

What has the fact they're gorgeous got to do with anything? Why is it hateful that women want to retain their single sex spaces for reasons of safety and privacy?

Gorgeous people. I’m not talking about looks. I couldn’t care less what they look like.

Muffinmam · 08/04/2026 14:50

I couldn’t read your entire post.

Every so often a man comes on here with the intent to troll.

There’s no hate. No one cares.

Single sex facilities are provided on the basis of sex, not feelings.
The reasons women need them haven't gone away. That's why we fight to keep them.

This will be disingenuous. Trust me, they don't like transmen any better.

Again, what does that have to do with anything? There are lots of gorgeous men who don't identify as trans. Should we let them into women's single-sex spaces too?

Transmen are female and as such the level of 'otherness' and/or perceived threat or level of discomfort when in intimate situations is just not the same as with a male person...otherwise known as 'a man'. Especially strange men in public situations and spaces which have been set aside for the privacy, comfort and dignity of women and girls.

I don't think of any of those facts as " hate". Nobody can change sex, no matter how they identify or imagine themselves. Sex is instinctively registered.

I have zero like or dislike for any trans person.

I don’t care. Literally don’t care.

I want single sex spaces to remain single sex. Not gender. Sex.

dress however you want. Present as you please. But single sex means sex.

thank you.

So a completely difference circumstance and context than the one I was responding to then?

I was also raped when I was younger but it wasn't because I used the men's toilets

Sorry can't find it. Would be genuinely interested as I am a boxing fan and (of course) against men being allowed to compete against women. All I have seen so far is links to articles which link to articles which link to tweets and suspicion.

HOWEVER.

When JK Rowling posted her tweet, none of this had come out. She posted based on a picture of a not feminine looking person having won at sport, referring to them as a man. With no evidence.

Assuming you're not lying about the timeline, she still had the evidence of thousands of years of evolution which allowed her to instantly see he was a man within microseconds of seeing him moving and punching the woman in the face.

Just as you instantly saw he was a man. And just as we all did.

Not to mention she saw the images of his fellow men carrying him on their shoulders as he flexed which absolutely would NEVER have happened if he was a woman and would never have been allowed.

We all knew he was a man, as did you, and of course we were all right.

A trans woman in my eyes is a woman, and a trans man is a man. Especially once they have had gender reassignment surgery.

Your eyes are not the eyes of every woman, though. You are welcome to use mixed sex facilities if you like or prefer them, but you cannot consent on behalf of other women.

No one talks about trans men as everyone knows they are women. Including men.

Trans women are talked about as women don’t want males in their single SEX spaces and sports. This is what the issue is. This includes trans women as, drum roll - they are male. The nice ones and the bad ones (please tell us how we can tell the difference while you’re here).

It’s REALLY not that fucking difficult to understand.

I don't hate transgender women. I know a few and one is married to my cousin and they're perfectly nice people, at least the ones I know. They mostly come across as quite vulnerable/been through a lot MH wise.

My DP has very strong views against them though. For me it's just not a hill I wish to die on. Live and let live type feelings.

Yes, I don't care if people want to be trans, absolutely fine with me. My best friend from school fully transitioned, including surgery, many years ago now, and I love him just as much as ever.

I certainly don't hate transpeople. I just don't believe humans can change sex, or that males should be allowed to enter female spaces, no matter how they identify.

Why shouldn't we hate men who post about fucking women with splintery rolling pins?

But that's no reason to do away with the law and let traswomen in, is it? So I'm not sure what you're getting at.

Plus the important fact that the women who object to the presence of the men will no longer be the ones who are vilified.

What makes a 'true transgender woman'? What is the different to a man?

Transmen are women. That’s the truth of it, and as women we know we all share the misogyny, hatred , verbal abuse, and threats of physical violence that men use against women in every corner of the world.

Really? We rarely post about them but we hate them? Prove it.
